Hi!
What do you mean by abuse, exactly? Compilation errors etc. are neither spam nor illegal nor big enough to be a problem if they're around for a day or even longer.
And you don't really get around having to deal with moderating actual abusive content unless you go like <1h retention.
I personally have good reason for running x0.at with a big MIN time, but I guess having more granular control would be nice. (Weeks are just a multiple of days, so not that useful, but units smaller than days would be)
I'll also add that with retention times that small, the whole file-size based maths feels kind of useless and you could just simply do a find /files -mmin +59 -delete
or something

By abuse I mean people that will use automated processes to send the same file over and over again (yes, I know spammers that will do that eventually) therefore filling up your disk space (I only have 100 GB).
Yeah you have to deal with that no matter what, really
Hello,
First of all I'd like to thank for the amazing work. Been using it for more than one year already, with no issues.
Recently, on IRCv3 a spec named
filehost
was discussed and a draft proposal was done here.To avoid some abuses it would be nice if we can also specify hours instead of just days, because most of the time the file shared is bits of code that will be viewed right away, like a compilation error, a bug report, some
POC
code, etc.This way we could keep our server clean of files that don't need to be accessed for more than a couple of hours.
